Energy storage solutions for grid applications are becoming more common among grid
owners, system operators and end-users. Storage systems are enablers of several …

Deeply decarbonizing electricity production will likely require low-carbon sources that meet
energy demand throughout days, years, and decades. Renewable energy sources (RES) …

Grid operators are charged not only by their total energy demand, but also by their highest
power demand from the superior grid level. The maximum demand charge is usually …

This paper examines the present status and challenges associated with Battery Energy
Storage Systems (BESS) as a promising solution for accelerating energy transition …

This paper uses a two-level model predictive control-based approach for the coordinated
control and energy management of an integrated system that includes photovoltaic (PV) …

Micro-tracked CPV, in which cells move relative to fixed concentrating optics, allows CPV to
be deployed in the same manner as fixed PV modules. Behind-the-meter applications in …

The transition to renewable energy sources, particularly sources like wind and solar induces
a dependency on weather in the supply side of electrical grids. At the same time, the move to …

Within a single jurisdiction, electricity regulators may set varying tariff structures depending
on the type of customer, to recover the cost of generating and delivering electricity. From this …

Monthly demand charges form a significant portion of the electric bill for microgrids with
variable renewable energy generation. A battery energy storage system (BESS) is …

Energy Storage is expected to play a significant role in realization of a Smart Grid paradigm.
Energy storage devices can compensate for the variation and shortfall of the output from …
